Abstract

Perfect functioning not only at hardware level but also at software level design is indispensable to quench the thirst of an ideal real time communication. From software perspective, in the timeless sensitive communication context, Real-Time Operating System's kernel design must be sensitive enough to compensate different delays. Active contribution from each communication layer protocol as well as cross layer protocol makes the overall performance healthier and valiant. To enjoy the relationship of operating system and communication layers in the form of ubiquitous wireless sensor network's (WSN) real-time applications requires the non-separable role of wireless data communication. Different channel coding and modulation techniques, bandwidth and frequency selection and transmission impairments in wireless communication contribute a lot in energy consumption and communication delay in wirless sensor network. In our research work, we target to exploit the Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) capabilities with network layer as well as cross layer protocols to achieve preciseness in energy-aware real time communication applications in the stringent constraint factors of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). In addition to this, studying, analyzing and statistical modeling of different communication parameters add strength to our research work. Current results of simulating the energy-aware real-time routing layer protocols have shown better performance in throughput ratio, network lifetime, network energy consumption, and packet delivery ratio.
